Hi all,


Please advise which feature of GIMP I need to apply for reducing the red color on the photo.  Please refer to attached image.

It is an old faded photo with yellowish color.  I scanned it on my mobile phone, Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, macro lens 1x.

The positive photo was then cropped on GIMP and exported as .jpg file without any post-editing done.

Thanks

Regards

A Fiverr guy created a GIF for me, 4.3 MB.
The free GifViewer program broke it down into individual...
612 frames, and a sum total of 61 MB.
Why do the parts add up to so much bigger than the original?

I didn't like the fact that 20 frames were used for some scenes,
instead of just One frame each, with a longer duration.
I deleted some frames, then GIMP adjusted the Duration of some frames.
Ended up with just 123 frames, of various Durations.
Still, the new GIF is 21 MB.  Why so big?

Thanks, people.

new to gimp and image editing in general (aside from basics).

i have discovered a lot of images (cars and sports) which are on slides to be scanned. the slide mounts have some info on the image contents etc.

i would like to add these to the image, when printed probably 8x6, 10x8, 12x10 etc which i understand are common sizes. and for print at 300dpi, the image / document sizes would be 2400x1800 (8x6), 3000x2400 (10x8) and 3600x3000 (12x10) is this correct?

here is an example and would be exactly the thing i'm looking for. https://www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/car-pres...632551001/

i would like to have a banner at the bottom where i can add in caption info eg the car or sports team / dates etc, and my contact info, and this would be probably take up an inch or so of say an 8x6 inch print if the example is anything to go by.. (i do plan to print them like the example too).

my questions are

1. how can i do this, in general, as i say im new to gimp / beyond basics.
2. can it be done so the banner is a template and i then just drag and drop in the main image and change some text on the caption (some info will be constant eg my contact info), and then print, i presume i would need a template for each print size i would like to have.

hope i've explained it well! thanks in advance.

I am a new Gimp 2.10 user (refusing, after getting a new Mac running OSX 12.4 Monterey, to pay Adobe for annual licence fees for a Photoshop program I already own).

I need to save .xcf files with an icon/thumbnail so that I can see what is in them in the Finder.  All I see is the Gimp Fox?+Paintbrush icon.  This does not happen with .pdf, .psd or .tif files saved from any other program, but still happens when I export to .tif from Gimp.

I can find no option within the Gimp Preferences.  And web posts on plugins etc were not clear.

Advice?

Hello,
I tried to make a new sky to 360-image according to the instructions of these videos:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wlq17mAkYU
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AaD_6df2myc

All parts of the videos were clear, but only the final point was unclear to me.
I selected "gradient tool" and then made straight line from the highest point of horizon to black area edge, but it only makes black in the area where I pull the gradient tool line.

Here is image, what kind of settings I used in gradient tool (should be same as in the video):
   

After adding the "layer mask" there is two small images on the same layer in the layer section. I selected the sky image in the layer section, so I do not selected the white small image in the layer section.

Why it makes black and not combine the panorama imge and the sky image together like in the video ?

I tried to do everything as in the video.
I even tried with same Gimp version than in the video, but same problem.

Thanks for answers and I can give more information if needed !

Hey there,

I'm having a big problem.

I'm using a template to edit text on a background photo with already set Textlayers.
All of a sudden the layers are not choosable by leftclicking anymore and I can only edit the layers name, not the text itself.
I didn't save the changes or anything it just suddenly didnt work anymore and now all several savings of the template have the same problem.

Any Idea what I did wrong? How to reverse it?

I read that by rotating or similar actions the layers get converted in to pixels or something and are not editable anymore,but if thats the case why did all change at once and stay 
this way without saving the file?

Help would be REALLY appreciated.

Thanks in advance and have a nice day

Please help me fix this guys

• hello and good day

Hi all,

Eons ago I used Adobe PS and could do the basic task but have not been able to figure out how to do this in GIMP.

I need to do what I assume is a simple copy of one image and past it on top/into another.
What I need to do is take image of bat call pulses and paste it into another blank image with frequency lines as the background.

This show predicted call frequencies for species not yet known.

Seems the repetitive task will serve my needs but clearly I need a bit of hand holding to master the few steps.  I can not seem to find the correct menu items to select and complete this task.  Once I have the steps I should be able to repeat them as often as necessary.

Tnx for anyone willing to assist.  As the old saying goes"It is never too late to teach an old dog new tricks...it =just takes longer!" ;-)
Cheers
Bat Dude
